Turok: Dinosaur Hunter – port review
Admittedly, I never played Turok during its original N64 release. Which is really quite surprising given that it possessed all the necessary traits to grab younger me’s interest. It was available on N64, it had rad ass cover art, and most intriguingly it had an M rating and likewise an 18+ tag stuck on the […]

Recently released, Star Wars Pinball: The Force Awakens pinball pack for Zen Pinball 2 is Zen Studio’s newest themed offering for players. This pack features the two aptly named tables Star Wars Pinball: The Force Awakens and Star Wars Pinball: Might of the First Order, with themes from Jakku and a Star Destroyer respectively. As […]
Hacknet, the Unix Developer’s Review
By special guest editor Robyn Robo It’s an odd feeling writing a review about Hacknet, coming home from my software job while logged into a Linux desktop with a terminal window blinking and notes in my text editor. A browser lies obscured in the background with an email account waiting for attention. I’ve come home […]
Ocean Runner | Review
Endless runners are always hard to gauge. Will they be just mindless and endless running or will they have some substance to them. As easy as it is to just play an endless runner they tend to wear away at me very easily. But Ocean Runner looked like it might have had something more than […]
Amplitude |Review
15 years ago, long before the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises really took off and brought the music game genre to the gaming mainstream, when everyone thought of music games, people brought up games like Dance Dance Revolution and its ilk, such as Bust a Groove, one of my personal favorites, back then, and Parappa the Rapper. Harmonix’s Frequency gave us the same […]
Petite Novel Series – Harvest December | Review
For a number of reasons this review has been challenging and for those same reasons this review will actually have to be a two-part review. The first part of the review is based on the software itself while the second part based on the story. It’s an odd way to do the review, but hear […]
The Legend of Dark Witch 2 | Review
It was just over a year ago that I sat here reviewing the original The Legend of Dark Witch. I enjoyed that game and it got a pretty good review as a result. The game was simple, solid, and fun to play. You’ll find more of the same in the sequel here, with a ton […]
Just Cause 3 | Review
Version Reviewed: PlayStation 4 Planning on blowing up DRM? You’ll need a Demolitions Permit, or a Just Cause. The premise: The franchise’s protagonist, Rico Rodriguez, returns to his home, the fictional nation of Medici, which is now ruled by an oppressive militaristic regime under Generalissimo Sebastiano Di Ravello. The results: Gloriously cheesy one-liners from a sexy […]

NHL 16 | Review
If you know me well at all, you should know that there’s one thing other than gaming that’s near and dear to my heart: hockey and the Detroit Red Wings, equally. I’ve been a fan nearly as long as I’ve been alive and when you give me the chance to mix hockey and video games, […]
Life is Strange | Full Season Review
I can’t even start this Life is Strange review without worrying about how it’ll sound. That’s how this game has me: in a fluster of emotion, insecurity, and anger. This game perfectly embodies the high school experience – perhaps a little too well. While I am on in my years I remember my years in high school […]

This one takes us for the first time in modern gaming in to the Warhammer Fantasy realm. Its a realm of Dwarves, Wizards, Elves, Humans and Greenskins, rather […]

Saitek is well known for making quality peripherals for both the PC and Console market, so it came as no surprise that when a new awesome peripheral like the heavy equipment controller is released you know it’s […]
Undertale | Review
Review By: Andrea Ritsu This is a review of Undertale that is 100% spoiler free. Reasons why are given in the review but I want you all to understand that this is a very difficult game to review because of this very reason. Almost any detail, even from the game’s own store page, can harm […]
